 In June, the temperatures in western and eastern Inner Mongolia witness both differences and similarities. The daytime high temperatures in the east mostly fluctuates between 20 and 28 degrees Celsius (68 - 82 degrees Fahrenheit) and those in the west range from about 25 to 34°C (77 - 93°F). Therefore, during daytime, eastern Inner Mongolia climate in June is warm and cozy and it turns a little hot in the west. But it doesn’t make you sweat a lot even around noon. For several days, both eastern and western parts experience higher temperatures, around 32°C (90°F) and 38°C (100°F) respectively. When night falls, low degrees of the two parts vary little, usually in the range of 11 - 18°C (52 - 64°F). Thus, the early morning and late evening has a cool climate, but still pleasant.
 On average, the precipitation of the whole region increases to 45 - 60 mm (1.77 - 2.36 in) in June. Though not high in general, it serves to increase the humidity somehow and the climate of Inner Mongolia in June becomes not that dry. But it is of regional variations and the western parts with less rainfall and higher temperatures remains dry probably. Skin-care products like lip pomades are suggested still.

There are about 8 days with some rainfall. In most time, the rain is in light or moderate intensity and visitors could continue their sightseeing with raincoat or umbrella. Sometimes, heavy rainfall like thunder storm also occurs, but it is brief and occasional. You can find a temporary shelter like the tourist center or nearby restaurant to escape it. In early June, light snow and hailstone are also possible in northern and eastern parts, but as rarely as once in several years.
 From eastmost Hulunbuir to westmost Alxa, the day breaks at around 3:50 - 5:40 and night falls at 20:10 - 20:40. So, Inner Mongolia in June receives an average daytime of 15 - 16 hours, the longest of the year. It is a favorable factor for Inner Mongolia trip since many natural scenic spots there are far away from each other as well as from urban areas, which spends visitors a lot of time on the way.

Meanwhile, the sunlight duration also reaches its peak in this month, averaging about 10 hours per day, accounting for two thirds of the daylength, as the weather of Inner Mongolia in June is sunny generally. Abundant sunshine also enhances the charm of natural scenery. However, the particularly high UV index of 9 demands visitors to take both strict measures to prevent the strong sunlight.
 It is certainly a good choice to visit Inner Mongolia in June for its pleasant weather and appealing natural views.

As mentioned above, the whole region is free from burning heat and severe coldness most time of this month. Even visiting the westmost Tengger Desert or southern Singing Sand Ravine, you won’t feel sweltering. Dusty days become seldom and June enjoys a quite high air quality and visibility, so visitors can conduct their trips under azure sky. More importantly, the natural views have welcomed their prime including the vibrant grasslands, lush forests and clear lakes. Plenty of tourist activities are provided as well. You can conduct a camel riding in the desert, have a grass sliding, take a yacht across the lake or watch birds in Ergun Wetland. 
  Upper Body: It is suggested to wear breathable and quick-dry T-shirts of light colors since they absorb less heat under sunshine. It would be better if they are made of cooler materials like linen and chiffon. Sunscreen coats or sleeves are indispensable to prevent strong sunlight; thin shirts and long-sleeved T-shirts not only work as alternatives for sun protection, but also keep you warm in the early morning and late evening. You also need to bring thicker outer layer such as trench coats, leather coats, windbreaker for colder mountain areas or rainy days.

 Lower Body: For suburban natural attractions, you had better wear summer trousers like thin sweatpants or lightweight jeans in case that your legs are bite by insects or cut by grass on the steppes. For urban tours, dress or shorts are good choices.

 Shoes: Any breathable and anti-slippery shoes are suitable and sport shoes are most recommended. You can pack waterproof shoe covers to deal with rainy weather.

 Others: Sunhats, sunscreen cream, sunglasses and other sun protection items are essential to ensure a pleasant trip. As the mosquitoes become increasingly rampant in Inner Mongolia in June, you should pack relevant repellent sprays or pastes. Raingear is also necessary and you can choose a folding umbrella or portable raincoat.
